Sand channel, PSP, Marsden matting

I finally found time to make the trip to Calumet, OK to pick up some PSP. Fortunately Capt. (ret'd) Dennis Boots (waving hello in the picture) of the Viet Nam Veterans Association Chapter 920, Denton, TX had to make a run to Oklahoma City to pick up some insulated cab covers for the unit's M35A2's so I tagged along and avoided a large gas bill. (By the way, anyone experiencing a breakdown during the Trans Continental convoy next month will get to know Dennis very well as he has taken on the responsibility of maintenance officer for the trip and will be driving his M151 as tail-end Charly with the maintenance trailer.) Calumet Industries has 80 acres of military surplus with items ranging from trucks, trailers, drop tanks, PSP, storage containers, truck parts, web gear etc. etc. As for PAP, they only had one length left as it is more popular than the PSP and it wasn't for sale.

CHIMO! Derek.
